Covering #Boulder for @axios. Formerly @dailycamera; #CUBoulder grad; Hawaii native surviving in a landlocked state with the help of beer, golf and snuggies.
Football season is underway, but no word yet from the Dark Horse on its Louisville reopening, while the bar set to take the place of Harpo's also had its opening pushed back: axios.com/local/boulder/2026…
Heads up: I'm at BVSD covering tonight's vote on a proposal to close four schools. We have an hour of public comment and other agenda items before the vote
Bucher moves to remove Douglass from the proposal, arguing it's rural nature should have excluded it from consideration on the same way BVSD did not include mountain towns in this plan
Fire crews are responding to a small wildfire northwest of Boulder near N. Foothills and Longhorn Rd. The fire is slow growing and firefighters feel like they have handle on the fire. No need to call 911 for this fire.
As per Axios style, I wanted to use mascot emojis while typing up the #CUBuffs schedule for the year. Then I realized we play three wildcats, a cougar and whatever a bearcat is. And that is without Arizona and BYU on the schedule this year.
#Boulder County animal rehab facilities are seeing an increase in wet animals coming in due to viral videos of people dousing hot wildlife axios.com/local/boulder/2026…
Smoke from a wildfire in Larimer County near Pinewood Springs may be seen in Boulder County in the Lyons area. At this time, we have no impacts (evacuations, road closures, etc.) in Boulder County, if that changes, we will let you know.
#Boulder Fire specifying this is NOT a wildfire, but a non structure fire. Reading between the lines, might be an electric/transformer fire. There are outages in the area
Boulder Fire-Rescue is currently in the area of Kohler Reservoir for the report of smoke. A small fire has been identified, crews have surrounded the source.
We are aware of electric outages throughout Boulder at this time. Use caution through intersections.
Crews continue to investigate the area and more information will be provided when we have it.
Some individuals in certain geographic areas of Boulder have received an Advisory: Warning to Evacuate. Please sign up for emergency alerts at bocoalert.org
ALERT: Per BVSD, it appears Erie's Meadowlark School was the target of a "swatting" call. Law enforcement responded and do not believe there is a legitimate threat at this time
